Chapter 108: Chapter 108: Cheng Yaojin Appears on the Way
Liu Shuxin’s voice was stammering with pain.
"You, just let me go..."
She finally knew fear.
"When you sent assassins to kill us and even tried to burn us alive, why didn’t you think about letting us go?"
Chu Baihan coldly questioned.
"The Emperor has already punished me, what more do you want? Besides, you all didn’t die, did you? Do you want my life as compensation?"
Liu Shuxin’s tone started to become forceful again.
She even felt that it was because of Chu Baihan that she and the Liu Family ended up in their current state.
"It seems that you will never know where you have erred," Chu Baihan said with a hint of sarcasm.
"Such a person is not worth pitying if they die," Nan Xing couldn’t hold back, her voice tinged with anger.
"She’s yours to deal with," Chu Baihan withdrew her gaze, commanding in a cold voice.
"Yes, Princely Heir!"
Nan Xing and Ruolan immediately nodded, they had already been unable to contain themselves.
Only now did Liu Shuxin start to realize that something was wrong.
She wondered why, if Chu Baihan and the others hadn’t died, they had waited so long to seek revenge?
How had they managed to infiltrate the capital without anyone noticing?
The title "Princely Heir" that Nan Xing used just then finally gave her the answer.
"Chu Baihan, Nan Baihan, so you are the same person! I always wondered why I despised both of you so much; turns out you are the same vile creature," Liu Shuxin clenched her fists, her words laced with venom.
Nan Baihan was Chu Baihan, no wonder so many strange things had happened recently.
It must have been her doing!
"Chu Baihan, I’m going to expose you to the Emperor!" she shouted angrily.
"Do you think you still have the chance?"
Nan Xing scoffed and took out a rope from her person, then quickly tied it around Liu Shuxin’s neck.
"The legitimate daughter of the Liu Family, knowing her sins are too deep, has thus taken her own life at home, how about this cause of death?"
She leaned in and whispered into Liu Shuxin’s ear.
"No, don’t, you can’t do this to me..."
Liu Shuxin continued to struggle.
But Nan Xing had already hung the rope.
The things she had done to them that year were enough for her to die ten thousand times.
The Princely Heir had been merciful to let her live for so long.
"Don’t worry, we will not let you die that easily," Ruolan stepped forward, pushing an entire bottle of poison into Liu Shuxin’s mouth.
Once, Liu Shuxin forced the Princely Heir to take an abortion pill, causing the Princely Heir and the Little Princely Heir to endure so much suffering; today, they were determined to return all that pain to her.
As the poison reached her stomach, Liu Shuxin quickly began to feel the agonizing pain.
And the sensation of suffocation around her neck grew increasingly severe...
Chu Baihan watched coldly from start to finish.
The suffering Liu Shuxin endured was not enough to cleanse her of her sins.
Just as Liu Shuxin was about to breathe her last, several darts suddenly shot out from a dark corner.
"Be careful!"
Chu Baihan immediately pulled Ruolan and Nan Xing to the side.
But what she hadn’t expected was that the target was actually—Liu Shuxin.
One of the darts hit the rope, and quickly a figure in black somersaulted out, caught Liu Shuxin, and swiftly carried her away.
Chu Baihan and the others wanted to chase, but unexpectedly, several figures in black appeared from the shadows to engage them in fight.
Their martial arts were not weak, making them particularly difficult to deal with.
After throwing a few more darts at Chu Baihan and her companions, they rapidly retreated.
Nan Xing and Ruolan still wanted to chase after her, but Chu Baihan stopped them.
"There’s no need to chase. The Imperial Army is all around outside. Alarming them would do us no favors," she said with a grave tone.
"So we just let Liu Shuxin get away like that?"
Ruolan stamped her foot, unwilling to let it go.
They had nearly killed Liu Shuxin, only for someone unexpectedly to come to her rescue at the last moment.
Chu Baihan turned to pick up the darts on the ground.
They were ordinary-looking darts with no distinctive marks.
But she felt that the way those people had thrown the darts was eerily familiar, remarkably similar to six years ago...
To the mysterious person who had used a dart to injure her in the Chu Family!
She clenched the dart in the palm of her hand, her expression growing colder by the second.
Could it be that these two groups were one and the same?
Suddenly, something flashed through her mind, and she spoke out sternly, "Retreat. We’re going to the Sky Prison now."
But by the time they arrived at the Sky Prison, it was already too late...
Men in black had stormed the prison and rescued Chu You.
What exactly did they want to do?
Chu Baihan’s entire demeanor turned icy cold.
"Princess," Nan Xing called out worriedly.
Taking a deep breath to steady her emotions, Chu Baihan said quietly, "Let’s go back and decide what to do next."
Back at the Princess Residence.
As soon as Chu Baihan opened the door, a little ball hurled itself straight at her.
"Mommy, I’m sorry, Xixi has made you worry again,"
Chu Junxi said in a muffled voice.
"This isn’t your fault. You don’t need to apologize." Chu Baihan bent down, gently stroked his head, and comforted him patiently.
Remembering what had happened at the Prince Residence during the day, she wanted to ask him if he had seen everything Yan Lin had done to the little girl.
But the words wouldn’t come out...
It would be too cruel for Xixi.
After all, he was Yan Lin’s son.
From the moment Xixi was born, she had wanted to hide from him who his real father was.
But he was so intelligent; not to mention his real father, he had discovered quite a bit about the past events, which was why he harbored such strong resentment towards Yan Lin.
Seeing her hesitate, Chu Junxi could instantly guess her thoughts.
He clenched his teeth tightly and said in a suppressed voice, "Mommy, there’s nothing to be sad about. I have never wanted to recognize him as my father..."
"Xixi, don’t live with hatred in your heart. The events of the past were due to a misunderstanding between your father and me, not because he sent someone to kill me."
Chu Baihan didn’t want Xixi to carry the burden of hatred, so she hurriedly explained the situation to him.
"But he took another wife and had children. He betrayed you, Mommy. He was wrong!"
Chu Junxi clenched his fists, his voice filled with anger.
Looking at his reddened eyes, Chu Baihan’s heart sank.
She hadn’t realized... how sensitive Xixi’s thoughts were.
"Xixi, let us not dwell on who has wronged whom. As soon as we get the Snow Ganoderma, we’ll return to the Nanduan Kingdom and never come to this place again, okay?"
That was all she could do to persuade him.
Because of the events of that day, she no longer felt comfortable with him traveling to the Nanduan Kingdom alone.
She would finish her business and then return with him.
After calming him down and making sure he was asleep, Chu Baihan finally stepped out of the room.
"Did you find out what happened at the Sky Prison?" she asked coldly.
"Other than Chu You being rescued, the rest are still there. The Emperor himself has been alerted, but we still haven’t found out who is behind this," Nan Xing shook her head.
Chu Baihan did not dwell on the issue and continued in a deep voice, "Has there been any major event in Yan Country recently?"
